12 Best American Restaurants in Deadwood

“Absolutely fantastic! We’ve eaten here a few times before and it’s always been good, but tonight was excellent. My wife and I shared a ribeye and macadamia crusted halibut. I’m picky on both of those entrees and they didn’t disappoint. The halibut was cooked absolutely perfect (not overcooked) and the sauce was one that I’m going to have to figure out at home for my walleye. Thanks for the awesome meal. We will be back!“

“Such a great place!!! The views are amazing. The restaurant had very good food and great service. I feel like I am at a resort.“

“We stayed at Mystic Hills Hideaway for 2 1/2 weeks (before Sturgis Rally). We enjoyed our stay. We had a great site. Shawn the owner was awesome… so friendly. We rented UTV & Shawn gave us great advice on where to go…Moonshine Gulch Saloon! Kristie in the Lodge restaurant was awesome and gave us advice on how to use backroads to visit places. Food was delicious… Shawn knows how smoke the meat for ‘ pulled pork and prime rib’!Campground is close to all the great places to visit. And we got to watch the cows roaming. We will definitely go back.“

“We were in Saturday for a late birthday lunch and it was absolutely perfect! The food was phenomenal, everyone in our group loved what they ordered, but beyond that our server Austin was amazing. We were a little rowdy and he was great at putting up with our nonsense and was so much fun but also very knowledgeable and made great food recommendations. I had a burger that Austin recommended and it was delicious! We also really enjoyed the bar tender too but unfortunately I didn’t get her name. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!“

“What a find in Deadwood. If you visit you must eat at snitches. Our waitress EllaMia made the experience one to remember. She was so knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings and delivered the descriptions so eloquently. There was not one speck of food left on anyone’s plate. The appetizers were unique and delicious. The duck dish was one of a kind. The tomahawk steak shared by friends was to die for. Not one person had anything bad to say about their food. We were raving to the rest of our group that had dinner down the street. Thank you EllaMia again! We will miss you“

“We ate in the bar area where there are a bunch of TVs with many different sports games.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures but my friend with me ate a Smashburger with fries. It looked really good. She said it was excellent. . I had the trashcan nachos. The concept is cute but when you dump out the trashcan, the cheese didn’t really get very well distributed nor did any of the ingredients for the on top of the chips. Also, It probably would’ve tasted better with real cheese. The chicken on it was really good and it was more than enough for a dinner, Even though it is an appetizer…. The next time we ate there, we both had the macaroni and cheese and the pork barbecue. Macaroni could’ve used much more cheese. The pork was good. The macaroni was cooked perfect.
Service at the bar was pretty good was kind of confusing because they had 3 or 4 bartenders. They kind of worked “over” each other, Meaning they didn’t really have an assigned section. They just kind of waited on people as they needed it. It seemed a little confusing to me.“

“I travel alot, and coming to Deadwood, I Highly recommend the Gulch. Rooms are VERY Clean, I think the Bed is better than my own at home, and they have FREE BREAKFAST! The Bonus is , I won 2000$ last time, and won 500 just walking to my room. It's not on the Strip, but WOW, Impressed.“

“great place, great food, good prices. we stop there everytime we r in town. however today I was so disappointed we walked out. we were a party of 8 adults 2 kids, the young server(not the normal lady) was very rude and unwelcoming from the start. we asked to pull two tables together, as we have in the past numerous times and she said "no you will be in the way." now mind you there were only two tables being used at the time. it wouldn't have bothered me so much, but her attitude from start sucked. im hoping she was just having a bad day. still will be our favorite place to eat, juat not this weekend..“

“Wish I went there yesterday as well. Diverse and well-delivered menu (sweet Vidalia onions were a pleasant surprise). Friendly and super-competent service in a comfortable, not-too-loud sports bar setting. So much better than I would have expected!“

“A lot bigger inside than it appears from the outside... I chose to eat inside to avoid the windy conditions which would have probably cooled off my burger and fries faster than I could eat them. Friendly staff... Casual environment... Easy option for food with touristy prices... but the whole town is touristy. If you're just a party of one or two... sit at the front window for people watching.“

“Phenomenal food combined with service to match. Love this place!“

“Terrible hostess. We're told there was only high-top seating left as we were seated walked by numerous booths that were open. No one came to serve us. we left after 10 minutes of silence, while the hostess was on her phone outside of the kitchen. Boy, was she shocked when we picked up our things and left. Motto "Everyone's welcome" was by the far the biggest lie that was told yesterday. extremely disappointed. -5/10“
